Existing `get`/`set` logic is flawed in that it doesn't work on Big Endian operating systems, and it allocates heap objects when it doesn't need to.
`System.Buffers.Binary.BinaryPrimitives` in the `System.Memory` NuGet package provides both Little Endian and Big Endian methods to read and write data; all the `get`/`set` operations have been reworked to use this new API. This removes the need for PKHeX's manual `BigEndian` class, as all functions are already covered by the BinaryPrimitives API.
The `StringConverter` has now been rewritten to accept a Span to read from & write to, no longer requiring a temporary StringBuilder.
Other Fixes included:
- The Super Training UI for Gen6 has been reworked according to the latest block structure additions.
- Cloning a Stadium2 Save File now works correctly (opening from the Folder browser list).
- Checksum & Sanity properties removed from parent PKM class, and is now implemented via interface.
AltForm & Form & Forme => Form
GenNumber & Generation => Generation
Extract out SpeciesForm interface, and re-add IGeneration
For those using PKHeX as a dependency, this should be a pretty straightforward manual replacement... GenNumber and AltForm should be quick find-replace`s.
Change Ability array to IReadOnlyList, add method to check ability index in personal data
Suppress some message warnings
Change EvolutionChain short-circuit for VC to jump from gen6 directly down to gen2. There aren't any notradeback 1 situations, so a notradeback1 will always start with g=1, so no need for the other if-continue.
Simplify pk5 conversion
* Handle some nullable cases
Refactor MysteryGift into a second abstract class (backed by a byte array, or fake data)
Make some classes have explicit constructors instead of { } initialization
* Handle bits more obviously without null
* Make SaveFile.BAK explicitly readonly again
* merge constructor methods to have readonly fields
* Inline some properties
* More nullable handling
* Rearrange box actions
define straightforward classes to not have any null properties
* Make extrabyte reference array immutable
* Move tooltip creation to designer
* Rearrange some logic to reduce nesting
* Cache generated fonts
* Split mystery gift album purpose
* Handle more tooltips
* Disallow null setters
* Don't capture RNG object, only type enum
* Unify learnset objects
Now have readonly properties which are never null
don't new() empty learnsets (>800 Learnset objects no longer created,
total of 2400 objects since we also new() a move & level array)
optimize g1/2 reader for early abort case
* Access rewrite
Initialize blocks in a separate object, and get via that object
removes a couple hundred "might be null" warnings since blocks are now readonly getters
some block references have been relocated, but interfaces should expose all that's needed
put HoF6 controls in a groupbox, and disable
* Readonly personal data
* IVs non nullable for mystery gift
* Explicitly initialize forced encounter moves
* Make shadow objects readonly & non-null
Put murkrow fix in binary data resource, instead of on startup
* Assign dex form fetch on constructor
Fixes legality parsing edge cases
also handle cxd parse for valid; exit before exception is thrown in FrameGenerator
* Remove unnecessary null checks
* Keep empty value until init
SetPouch sets the value to an actual one during load, but whatever
* Readonly team lock data
* Readonly locks
Put locked encounters at bottom (favor unlocked)
* Mail readonly data / offset
Rearrange some call flow and pass defaults
Add fake classes for SaveDataEditor mocking
Always party size, no need to check twice in stat editor
use a fake save file as initial data for savedata editor, and for
gamedata (wow i found a usage)
constrain eventwork editor to struct variable types (uint, int, etc),
thus preventing null assignment errors
update handling that checked for this case to instead check for
equivalence to ability1 instead of 0
was generating a PGF with ability[1] = 0, which is not correct. Just fix
the binaries to behave and get rid of all the workarounds since future
tables don't have missing values.
